so, pointing out that shoving a cyclists into a lamp posts is twattish behaviour makes me a twat? so be it!
i didn't think it was an anti cycling twatery, but regardless, pushing a cyclist into a lamp post is fucking stupid.

No
Pushing a cyclist out of the way to stop being hit by him isn't fucking stupid in my book. His lack of control thereafter isn't my problem.

I suppose you'd have let him slam into you?

I'd love to hear how anyone else would have coped in this situation, given the three outcomes of;
1. Get struck down and more than likely injured.
2. Deflect cyclists path and not get injured.
3. Jump flat against a wall and risk a high chance of getting injured and then watch said cyclist continue on his merry way.

It's pretty simple - he had no business being on the pavement.
He'd declared himself outside the law by mounting and riding the pavement, so anything he gets while on it is his fault.

Exactly
My outlook is that people make mistakes. From stepping on my foot in a pub, to being in a car accident, as long as it's not intentional or overtly inconsiderate, I'm very understanding. Almost placid, and mistaken for timid in some cases. Hell it's a mistake I could have made.

But deliberately take the piss, and the gloves are off. My consideration for someone going out of their way to do me no good is non-existent.

A cyclist aiming to potentially maim me deserves likewise done unto him. The thing is, I wasn't even trying to hurt him. Karma I suppose...
